Oh goodness. I need an onerous thing to figure out my HSA. My card doesn't work, and I can't log in. I didn't contribute last year because I had over $4000 in there, but I hope I didn't somehow lose the money. I did find my new insurance card and the tax statement that shows how much I had in there in 2023.

askye- that sounds like a lot of health stuff. Please take care of yourself and M

Hil- I am sort of 100% that I have ADHD, but these medication shortages have me not want to even try.

I am also just screwed for retirement. I will never be able to retire without SS.

I attended calling hours for my old friend Joanne. I wasn't able to stay for the service because it was really too late for Maria who drove me. My friend, her daughter, had no idea how much she helped with the Livonia Community Players! I got to meet her husband and son. When going through things, she found thank you notes that I had given to Joanne, saved, which was sweet. Also reconnected with some of the youth group kids (one who came in from NY) and someone from the class below me who was friends with her son (who passed when we were young). I had sort of forgotten that she brought the Youth Group kids to the Community Players and got me involved in mentoring, when I was in my twenties and they were in high school. It was so weird that of course we are the same age now! And I have to get back to young people theatre, because I miss that connection so much.

I’m so glad you were able to go, it sounds like a really good connection, even if you couldn’t stay.

After yesterday’s moment of Zen with the eagles, here’s your moment of WTAF

My sister is DoorDash in Lake Geneva tonight and just overheard the following conversation in a McDonald’s:

"Nooo Ash Wednesday is Catholic!"

"Ohhhh I thought it was an Indian thing cuz they have stuff on their head all the time."

"Are you even anything? Like Christian?"

"No, I'm regular." 🫣🙏🤷‍♀️

What do you even do with that?

Oh, I'm so glad you were able to go, Sophia! Good luck with the HSA thing. I hope it's just a weird card issue or something

Well, that’s funny. I didn’t think the emojis would copy over. Huh.

That is hilarious, brenda! "No, I'm regular" is amazing under almost any circumstances. To be honest, so is "Are you even anything?"

Ha! As the first day of my Lent dealio I am not drinking wine. My sleep has been crap of late and I know wine is responsible, or at least I sleep well when I don't have a drink. So despite not having any Catholic inclinations I am abstaining. My cousin left me well-supplied with pot, which improves my sleep score. I am a lightweight so just a bit before bed.

An abundance of health~ma sent to askye and M.

I’m avoiding the news and world by logging a backlog of movies I’ve watched into letterboxd. Im trying to retroactively rate things also. It’s weird when I do not even remember watching a movie from an Oscar’s list.

Yoga was very chill. I'm definitely going to go back next week.

I forgot it was Ash Wednesday until I was watching some NBA commentary and the woman speaking had the weirdest, wispiest bangs. Until the camera moved in on her and I realized they weren't bangs.

Thanks to Laura's low carb bread endorsement I two eggs in a basket for breakfast. And then didn't eat until just now when I made an oven roasted hash of what was in the crisper (zukes, broccoli, red bell, mushrooms...), and had that with a delicious Bi-Rite crab cake, and one sunnyside up egg.

Very protein, demure and mindful.

I did the onerous tasks yesterday when I cleaned the Guinea Pig cage (overdue!) and got a check in the mail that was also getting overdue. I rallied last night to make a social engagement I was waffling on (and it was nice), and I've made a bunch of appointments for the next few weeks.

There's some mail I need to open and look at tomorrow but I don't really want to. I will though. And do the difficult, onerous call.

Hahah that was me, though I believe Brenda concurred.

Ha! I almost added, "or was it meara?"

Parking for yoga requires flexibility.

I see what you did there... heh.

Dinner was yum and fun, and now I must sleep.
